TLDR
This protocol is for the in-gel digestion of both silver and Coomassie-stained protein spots or bands and can be followed by MALDI-MS or LC-MS/MS analysis to identify proteins at sensitivities better than a few femtomoles of protein starting material.
Abstract
In-gel digestion of proteins isolated by gel electrophoresis is a cornerstone of mass spectrometry (MS)-driven proteomics. The 10-year-old recipe by Shevchenko et al. has been optimized to increase the speed and sensitivity of analysis. The protocol is for the in-gel digestion of both silver and Coomassie-stained protein spots or bands and can be followed by MALDI-MS or LC-MS/MS analysis to identify proteins at sensitivities better than a few femtomoles of protein starting material.

A method for rapid production of heteromultimeric protein complexes in plants: assembly of protective bluetongue virus-like particles.

TL;DR: The results show that transient expression can be used to produce immunologically relevant complex heteromultimeric structures in plants in a matter of days and have implications beyond the realm of veterinary vaccines.

ER stress potentiates insulin resistance through PERK-mediated FOXO phosphorylation

TL;DR: Evidence is presented that the ER stress pathway acts via a conserved signaling mechanism involving the protein kinase PERK to modulate cellular insulin responsiveness, and it is suggested that PERK may be a promising pharmacological target for ameliorating insulin resistance.

Verticillium longisporum Infection Affects the Leaf Apoplastic Proteome, Metabolome, and Cell Wall Properties in Arabidopsis thaliana

TL;DR: The results may suggest that VL enhances its virulence by rapid down-regulation and delay of induction of plant defence genes.

Detergent selection for enhanced extraction of membrane proteins.

TL;DR: Different detergents were more effective than others in the extraction of specific classes of integral membrane proteins, offering guidelines for initial detergent selection and supports the value of detergent screening and optimization to increase the yields of targeted membrane proteins.

Systemic Cold Stress Adaptation of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

TL;DR: Cold stress adaptation of C. reinhardtii is studied to integrate proteome, metabolome, physiological and cell-morphological changes during a time-course from 0 to 120 h and revealed correlations between proteins and metabolites otherwise not detectable.

Mass Spectrometric Sequencing of Proteins from Silver-Stained Polyacrylamide Gels

TL;DR: Silver staining allows a substantial shortening of sample preparation time and may, therefore, be preferable over Coomassie staining, and this work removes a major obstacle to the low-level sequence analysis of proteins separated on polyacrylamide gels.

Mass spectrometry-based proteomics

TL;DR: The ability of mass spectrometry to identify and, increasingly, to precisely quantify thousands of proteins from complex samples can be expected to impact broadly on biology and medicine.

Stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture, SILAC, as a simple and accurate approach to expression proteomics.

TL;DR: SILAC is a simple, inexpensive, and accurate procedure that can be used as a quantitative proteomic approach in any cell culture system and is applied to the relative quantitation of changes in protein expression during the process of muscle cell differentiation.

Stop and Go extraction tips for matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization, nanoelectrospray, and lc/ms sample pretreatment in proteomics

TL;DR: A novel procedure in which a very small disk of beads embedded in a Teflon meshwork is placed as a microcolumn into pipet tips, finding that the Stage system is well-suited as a universal sample preparation system for proteomics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mass spectrometry-based proteomics turns quantitative.

TL;DR: Two recently developed methodologies offer the opportunity to obtain quantitative proteomic information by comparing the signals from the same peptide under different conditions, and stable isotope labels facilitates direct quantification from the mass spectra.
